Individuals with a dual diagnosis are a marginalised group in our society, often exposed to prejudices, abuse, social isolation and lack of suitable support options that can meet this service user group’s specific support needs. Here at Advantage Care we provide a specialist supported living accommodation for men and women with a diagnosis of learning disability or autism and associated mental health and behavioural support needs, which may disrupt their ability to consistently function independently or as part of a community, participate in employment, maintain positive relationships or cope with the demands of every-day life.

Supported living services offer an excellent alternative to residential care settings and is an ideal setting to assess and consolidate skills, identity areas that need more work and risk assess in an environment that replicates home.
